Chapter 256 -256: Regained a Breather

“Guihua, you really raised a good son,” they said. “Now that Changhai is acquainted with the director of the clothing factory, getting a job there would surely be a matter of just a few words. You’ve finally made it through the tough times.”

The old lady listened as a crowd praised her for having a good son, the joy filling her heart and soul.

After all these years, her Eldest had finally won her some respect.

The entire village knew about Jiang Changhai’s recklessness and misbehavior.

Whenever she went back to her parents’ home over the years, she never stopped hearing idle gossip behind her back. Now, at last, she could hold her head high, which felt incredibly comfortable.

Meanwhile, her cousin from the Zhang family, who always had to compete and be better, was in agony.

She had always prided herself on having married someone superior to Zhang Guihua, and her children were more promising. Therefore, every time Guihua visited, she would invariably find subtle and boastful ways to belittle and show off to her.

But she never expected fortune to turn like this; the Jiang Family’s Eldest had such dumb luck!

Looking at all those fancy pastries and candies, she hadn’t even seen them before, let alone tasted them.

At that moment, Jiang Mianmian, who had just cleaned her shoes at the gate, walked in, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.

“Ah, which family’s little girl is this? She’s so pretty, fair and tender, with a plump little face,” someone exclaimed.

Most importantly, she was dressed well. Those clothes, pants, and shoes were clearly not cheap. Since when did Old Zhang’s House have relatives in the city?

The people of Old Zhang’s House who had seen Jiang Mianmian explained: “This is Guihua’s granddaughter.”

“Great Grandpa, Great Grandma, Great Uncle, Great Aunt, hello…” Mianmian politely greeted everyone.

This was one of the reasons she didn’t want to come: too many elders to greet.

After she had greeted everyone in turn, Zhang Guihua gleefully introduced her to the relatives from their clan, “This girl is Changhai’s daughter. She’s been clever and bright since she was little. She used to be frail, so her dad was very protective and I never brought her back before. Now that she’s grown up, we’re here to visit and recognize the family.”

“I thought she looked a bit familiar. She really does look like Changhai when he was young,” they said.

The Zhang family just smiled along, not exposing her clumsy lie.

Everyone in the village knew well that Zhang Guihua favored boys over girls.

Guihua took the chance to brag again, “Not only does she resemble the Eldest, but she’s also as clever as he is. This year she started school and was placed directly into the fourth grade. In both exams, she earned first place in her grade.”

“That impressive? Directly into the fourth grade and got first place?”

The Zhang family originally thought Jiang Mianmian looked good and sharp, a likable child.

Now that they heard she had scored first in her grade, they understood why Zhang Guihua had brought her back this time.

Zhang Guihua was very pleased with everyone’s reactions but seemed to want even more as she continued, “Yes, she got first place in the grade. Not only was she commended at the commune’s big meeting, but from now on, she doesn’t have to pay tuition. She also received a ten-yuan scholarship.”

The relatives were all astonished, their view of Jiang Mianmian transforming, seeing her as a golden child.

Such a little one, not having to work the fields, just sitting at school and earning ten yuan, almost like picking up free money!

“Is there really such a good thing? Going to school for free and making money?”

“With her academic prowess, she’ll certainly be able to work in a factory in the future, receive rationed grain, and won’t be considered a peasant like us any longer.”
